Match List I with List II and select the correct answer from the codes given below :

List I (Regional Organisations)	List II (Years of Origin)
(a) Organisation of American States (OAS)	(i) 1989
(b) North Atlantic Free Trade Agreement	(ii) 1948
(c) Arab Maghreb Union (AMU)	(iii) 1954
(d) South East Asian Treaty Organisation	(iv) 1994

Answer: B

The correct match is a-ii, b-iv, c-i, d-iii.

The Organisation of American States was founded by the Charter of Bogota in 1948 (a-ii).
The North American Free Trade Agreement (the paper prints 'North Atlantic') came into force in 1994 (b-iv).
The Arab Maghreb Union was created by the Treaty of Marrakesh in 1989 (c-i).
The South East Asia Treaty Organisation was set up by the Manila Pact in 1954 (d-iii).

Each of the other options misplaces at least two of these dates; the first, for example, gives OAS 1989 and SEATO 1994.
